Dude you have no idea!!!

 

I started to buy in 2012. £21 to £22 per ounce spot!!!  Check out how prices have fallen since then!!! A few pence up or down here or there is nothing, you could gain it all back next week.

 

In the long run we will all make money of this. Don't sweat the little changes! :)

spot price only really matter if your actually scrapping your stuff today 

 

If your buying silver you always pay a premium even on maples they are £2-3 over spot each without vat then postage on top so maby £4 over spot 

 

lunar stuff is nearly £6-9 over spot if u buy in bulk u get a bit off but still alot over spot 

 

i just got 40 uk lunar horses at £18 each inc delivery ect which is £6-7 over spot each !! so if silver goes back to 15-20 per oz ill be ok if there is a demand for these coins over the years ill be ok maby in 20-30 silver will be a bit higher than £30 a oz and i would of doubled my money 

 

just better buying some premium coins as well as bullion grade always fun to look at and hold and keep and eye on the market :]

For me this is why I think you should only put a small % of your savings into PM's

 

When you finally cash out it should be because you want to, not because you have to

Pretty much agree I think we all have different thought on when we would sell and why ect 

 

For me its more of a retirement thing in 20-30 years it would be ace to have 1000oz of silver and some gold to be able to sell to pass down keep hold of make like a bit more comfortable so todays prices are really cheap imo :]

Cycles though isn't it

 

Maybe Silver will hit it's peak in the next 10 years and that will be the time to sell

 

Or perhaps cycles are out the window with industrial use and it will just increase in value hmm

Lets say you had 1000oz and silver hit £30 an oz one day in the next 20 years and buy selling maby 800oz = youd get 24k and you could pay the mortgage off  i would and id be left with 200oz to hold onto which is basically free silver you can hold onto sell when u need 

 

Its all about personal aim in live i suppose :]

got to say im the other way , if you have a constant eye on spot price , yes you know your paying a premium plus vat if silver  or not if gold

but by checking spot  the sites that are live pricing , you can buy lower if a dealers price is in line with spot falling ,

that's why I follow spot

Ya it always helps i think this week has been a good time to buy spot has been down to 11.18 today thing is we all have to have cash on the hip ready to splash soon as a dip hits i got a set limit i only really bought these lunars as they will be gone buy the end of the year and hard to find so in situations like this u cant really wait for the spot price to much as they will be sold out or before you know it 

 

over 40 premium coins i saved £25 waiting 2 weeks later but i was watching the quantity on a daily basis was 150 in stock a week ago sold out today so i had to order to get the coins i wanted before they where gone at that price

Yeah as long as your buying for the right reasons ie long-term it doesn't really matter. It's still part of the fun trying to catch dips and studying all the traders advice though.

I do have a one ounce bar I brought a year a go. My first pm purchase, £862 I paid for it. Ever since then spots never been that high and that one ounce bar has caused me pain when my other ounces were all brought for between £756 and £811 mark.
